We have welcomed d long awaited lil baby... born on 22nd February 2010 @ 8.01pm... the lil prince is named Muhammad Ezz Rayyan bin Emil Zahrin...

After 39weeks of pregnancy, the lil boy has finally decided to show himself to the world.. The labour and delivery itself was an experience one would never ever forget..

Dijadikan ceta... alkisah... hehe... on the sunday 21st feb... i started to have tightenings around 11.30pm... (a good friend of mine, lina, wanted me to deliver on a 21st sal bday nya on 21st jua....) first i tot they were just braxton hicks.. coz my estimated due date was on 27th feb.. so nda brapa kisah lah... sal nya malar dah having this braxton hicks within that past few days...

however... after like half hr, nda jua branti nya.. and the tightenings were getting regular... so i told d hubby, e14.. so despite me being a dr (hahaha...apaler almaklum 1st time pregnancy) we googled thru the internet to check the differences between braxton hicks and contractions... we kept timing of my tightenings and they were regular at about 1 in 10 mins.., lasting up to 1min each... which meant i was having contractions.. we became excited coz it meant that i was going into labour, yeay! finally after 2-3weeks of pujuk d lil baby inside the womb to come out..... I decided to just stay at home until d pain became stronger...

Tapinya at around 1am.. i had a blood show during my trip to the toilet... so terpaksa lah jua bawa ke hospital coz need to check brapa dh dilated my cervix (mulut peranakan)... we only went at 2.30am after packing, showered and cut my nails... maklumlah.. kan berpantang... hehe..

At 6am, they did another check, and surprise surprise i was 2cm ONLY!.. hmmm... so the specialist decided to do ARM (pacah kan air tetuban) untuk speed up the process... well since then the pain got stronger.. i had pethidine injection to ease the pain... i think the waiting was unbearable... kan menunggu 10cm atu bah... brapa kali contractions udah came n went... mkn pun nda beliur....

At 2pm they did another check... baru 4cm..!!!!!!! a friend of mine yg di sebelah ku who came at the same time wif me subuh atu at 1cm jadi 7cm udah so ya kkana transferred ke labour room... i was like.. 'jgn jadi mcm si rachel in FRIENDS eh... remember yg part pregnant ladiees in n out and she's still not delivered?'... so i was getting worried...

At around 5pm.. the pain was getting worse... so i asked them to do another check... only 5cm!!!.. only???? kan menangis rasa nya...but the nurse ckp i had to be transferred jua to the labour room coz i was in active labour dah..

Masa di labour room.. thank god i had a wonderful experienced midwife. The contractions were getting stronger n becoming unbearable for me.. ( i could not have epidural anaesthesia due to an operation i had in the past..) so terpaksa tah be-urut saja my back balik2 uleh the midwife.. my hubby e14 was always by my side supporting me thru all this... abis kali sakit tgn nya uleh ku ganggam kuat2 everytime i had contractions...

U know in the labour room, u can basically hear other women yg in labour. After maghrib, i could hear my friend had finally delivered a baby girl... so getting impatience i asked the midwife to check again coz my back was really hurting.. nya 7cm baru... i was like '3cm lgi kah... bth jua'... hihi.. by this time i think i was palau udah from the pethidine injection...rasa kan mem-push udah ada... ( u are not supposed to push until ure fully 10cm dilated)... d hubby ckp jgn dulu push, bawa baca2 saja.. he then asked me to keep breathe in n out wif every contractions (u guys out there yg pregnant.. it is important to have ur husband by ur side during labour).... trying to help, the midwife gave me the Entonox gas (another painkiller) untuk di siruk dari mulut... but i couldnt do it coz i was in real pain udah that time.. inda lgi tersiruk.. (this i found funny looking back hihi.. u know.. mcm.. udah tah urg mengerang menahan sakit, kan disiruk-siruk lgi.. mcmana tah tu).

Di dlm2 ku kesakitan atu, i realized that my sister was in the room...i was thinking in my head ' cana bleh ya d cni ani?' but i didnt have the energy to mention it out loud... she looked worried by the way seeing me in pain.. haha.. sapa tah suruuh masuk ( katanya my mum yg suruh .. hmmm... )...i remembered that was 7.30pm.. (i knew all TIME nya ani coz jam ada palang2 infront of me arah dinding.. n coz i wanted to keep track of d time)... by this time rasa kan mengajan kuat udah.. so i told the midwife..' aku push ni aahh... ' haha.. panic tarus midwife ku.. nya 'tunggu dulu.. check dulu'... so she did another check.. and finally at 7.40pm... came the words that i had been waiting for... "bah... 10cm dah... push bila ada contractions ah.. aku sediakan brg2 dulu" ... so my sister kana suruh kuar and for the next 3 contractions.. i pushed n pushed n pushed.. and then he was out... our lil boy, apparently @8.01pm.... (alang2 drg simpan 01 minute aahh)... i can safely tell u guys yg hendak melahirkan.. that delivery part nda kerasaan tu... i think that was the easiest part of labour. Alhamdulillah...

d lil boy was then given to me... naked, soft and sticky...i still remembered saying 'baby.....mana nangis alai...' (sal nya i didnt hear him cried when he was out. Babies are supposed to cry when they're out of the womb'... then the lil boy gave me a tiny soft cry....(apparently he was still sleeping when he was out of the womb due to my pethidine injection). It was just sooooo amazing in that moment.. no word will be able to describe how i felt at that time... he is worth all the pain during the pregnancy n labour.. he was finally out... after 9 months of carrying him n waiting for him.... our baby Rayyan.. weighing 3.47kg!!

I had episiotomy (stitchings) and Post-Partum Haemorrhage (bleeding) .. and survived thru it. That dont matter anymore... coz now we have him in our life....

oh ya.. we celebrated our 1st Anninversary last 5th Dec 2009....happy anniversary syg.. :)time does fly by so quickly rite.... For our anniversary, we had a peek at our lil baby with an ultrasound scan.... we were quite excited to see how he is (oh yes.. for those of u who havent heard.. we are having a boy)... alhamdulillah lil baby is all well... :D so here are d photos... nah cam siapa usul nya???

he's coming to 33 weeks this friday... which means 7 more weeks to go.... we've been counting down the weeks... his kicks are getting stronger, my bump is bigger and yes.. im chubbier...(so does e14..hehehe sal he has to temankan mkn everytime im hungry.. which is like every few hours.. ahaks) also sleeping is getting difficult each week.. walking pun mcm lapas urg bersunat dah... thank god e14 has been very supportive melayaning my karenah and needs... thank you hubby... you're the sweetest... love u.. :) mudahan everything goes well and lil baby stays healthy so we'll get to meet him soon... amin....yeayyy! :D

oh yea... because of the pregnancy... we didnt get to go on holiday for the new year.. but we had a enjoyful new yr's celebration in town.. ahaks...

Well.. e14 had a good fun... i was on d sidelines most of the times, taking pictures... nda apalah.. next time, it will be my giliran.. wawawawawawawawawa... n ull be on d sidelines looking after the baby... wawawawawawawawawawa ;p

2009 had been a good yr... minus the H1N1 crisis, the 'vomiting period', it had been a wonderful year with lots of memories and experiences to learn from, especially about myself and d hubby... we are looking forward to wat 2010 has to offer us... especially with the arrival of lil baby soon.... :D we still have few baby things left to buy, its been exciting buying all the stuffs... iski berabish... and if nada self-control, we would have bought literally everything.... hehe...

Anyway... wat have u been missing then? My big brother & wife has a baby boy named Darwish.. he's almost 5months old now.. and very the chubby. My dear cousin, Nani & hubby has a baby girl called Nadia... she's turning out to be quite a model.. Congratulations to you guys on the birth of the little ones... makin bertambah cicit Hjh Siti Awan... alhamdulillah.

Oh yea.. I also celebrated my 2*th birthday last June (sorry.. cant mention the *age* salnya im still in denial about it ;p)....and mr hubby n me went to KL to celebrate it. It was our 2nd honeymoon, we had great and fun times at Sunway lagoon, playing the slides... siukkkk... felt like kids again...

So for my birthday, mr hubby asked me wat i want for my birthday present and i half-jokingly said i want a baby... well u see... we both agreed when we got married that we gonna postponed having kids dulu for atleast a year coz we wanna enjoy just being with each other and i was planning to take a big exam later this year... so.. i was actually surprised when mr hubby said OK!... yeay!!

To cut the story short and spare u guys the details ;p....We got back from KL and i had fever and cold few days after that, got qaurantined for 24hrs in Rimba for that.. but alhamdulillah it was not H1N1 virus!.. it was the longest 24 hrs in my life....i was so bored, alone in a small room, with basically nuthing but my runny nose, tissue and mobile phone... and i had the cold for almost 3 weeks!!!! it was distressing... Surprise, surprise...i missed my period then, so i brought mr hubby to Guardian and buy the PT... i didnt test it straight away coz i was nervous... mr hubby ckp its ok.. we'll wait.. so i waited... for like less than 24hrs.... the next day, while he was still sleeping, i slipped downstairs and did it!... i woke him up with a big smile on my face and a stick on my hand... he knew straight away... we both were overjoyed.... and YEAY!!!!!!...

So here goes the update to the blog.. we are expecting...!!Alhamdulillah... I am officially 12 weeks today.. and we called the 'fetus' as lil baby... We had 2 antenatal sessions already.. and guess wat...?...working under the ministy does have it privileges.... My colleagues at the antenatal clinic were so kind and did ultrasounds for us...

Here is the lil baby when it was only 7 weeks.. it was only 10mm long but already with a beating heart... i was sooooooooooooooo amazed by Allah's power at creating a life.. i kept saying it over n over again to mr hubby n myself at how amazing this tiny little thing with a heart already beating inside.... i know i had tears in my eyes then...

We had another session again yesterday... lil baby has grown a bit bigger (apparently by 3months it will be about 3 inches long)... the head and body are already identifiable.. if u look closely, u can see the legs..... we were thrilled to see its hands n legs moving about!!!! I was pretty sure the lil baby was waving at us through the screen.. hehe..... and guess who got really excited this time?.... c emilo lah.... he said lil baby was kicking.. and so he or she will be good at football in the future... haha

I am happy n excited that i am pregnant.. but im having 'baus' since week 9... everything taste bitter at the present... and so now i understand when people says 'pait liur' or 'kambang liur'. I lost 2kg since my first antenatal session.. the antenatal dr said it is normal during the 1st trimester when the morning sickness happens... (not morning for me.. coz i tend to have it late in the afternoon n during the evening.. nya nurses.. 'baus mlm'...).. so i am not so worried about the weight... i just pray this baus period will be over soon so that i can get sumore nutrients for the lil baby... mr hubby has been very helpful and supportive... and understands when sekali sekala i get stress all of a sudden without any good reasons kekekekeke.. :)

Well... thats it for the update as for now.... til the next ultrasound or news... doa kan lil baby sentiasa sehat and selamat hingga cukup bulan.... and doa kan emil and ebeh jadi daddy n mummy in the near future.... amin!...... many thanks to all the well wishers.... :)
